Here at zikatruth.com, we are committed to you and to protecting your privacy rights. We are committed to fulfilling our responsibilities under the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") in relation to the collection, retention, use, and other processing of personal data that is obtained when EU data subjects visit and interact with the Site.

zikatruth.com's Privacy Commitment

zikatruth.com asks for only the least amount of information necessary, gathering only what we believe is essential for doing business, or for the specific transaction at hand. We let customers know the information we have on them and allow them to opt out of specific engagements.

The goal of this policy is to make explicit the information we gather on our customers and users, how we will use it, and how we will not. This policy is unfortunately longer than we would like, but we must unambiguously address all the relevant cases. We will try and keep the language simple and direct as much as possible.

Scope of this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the products and services provided by zikatruth.com through these websites, our mobile applications, and applications posted by zikatruth.com on zikatruth.com' websites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any of our websites, products or services that have a separate privacy policy.

This Privacy Policy is divided into two parts:

Part I – Information zikatruth.com collects and controls

This part deals with how zikatruth.com collects and uses information about website visitors, potential customers, users of zikatruth.com products and services, and others who contact zikatruth.com through forms or email addresses published on or linked to our websites.
